Just after I crossed over a creek, I came upon this snake, snoozing in the tree branches, several feet above the water. It's a bit fuzzy because I backed up a bit, then zoomed in with the phone camera.

x2 on Buttermilk Racer, Kevin. They look almost like digital camo pattern.

They are wicked fast little guys once they decide they're done posing for the camera. Saw one up at Mercer Arboretum once that seemed to be unafraid of me until it became bored and turned on the afterburners into the brush.

My first thought when we spotted the snake was "digital camo pattern".

We saw a dead ring-tail cat today. I wanted to stop and get a photo, as it was fresh and didn't appear to be damaged, but the traffic behind me pushed us forward. We hike almost 8 long hot miles and got one traditional and 2 earth caches. The 2nd one was worth the trip. GC5HMQD The short parking lot was full and we had to park a ways off, which turned out to be a great blessing. It was maybe the most beautiful hike I've ever been on.
